Journal ArticleDOI
Venous thromboembolism: regional differences in the nationwide inpatient sample, 1993 to 2000.
TL;DR: The Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) contains data for hospital discharges in the United States that report a consistent mortality rate despite improved therapy, and regional diagnostic, treatment, and economic differences exist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired vasoreactivity despite an increase in plasma nitrite in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Brian S. Knipp,David A. Peterson,Sanjay Rajagopalan,Christine Kehrer,John W. Ford,Louis G. D'Alecy,Steven E. Whitesall,Matthew J. Eagleton,Thomas W. Wakefield,Peter K. Henke,Lloyd A. Jacobs,Lazar J. Greenfield,James C. Stanley,Gilbert R. Upchurch +13 more
TL;DR: This study is the first to document a divergence between ED and EI vasoreactivity and systemic NO metabolites in patients with AAAs, and it is speculated that a dysfunctional vessel wall response, rather than a lack of NO, may be important in the pathogenesis of AAAs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endovascular Aneurysm Repair Current Status
TL;DR: The data supporting EVAR as the primary treatment option for infrarenal AAA is robust, but its superiority over open repair can be questioned until the long-term outcomes from landmark randomized controlled trials begin to surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Female Mice Exhibit Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Protection in an Established Rupture Model.
Anna Z. Fashandi,Michael Spinosa,Morgan Salmon,Gang Su,William G. Montgomery,Alexis Mast,Guanyi Lu,Robert B. Hawkins,J. Michael Cullen,Ashish Sharma,Gorav Ailawadi,Gilbert R. Upchurch +11 more
TL;DR: These data are the first to attempt to tease out hormonal effects on AAA rupture and the possible role of gender in rupture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Renal malperfusion: spontaneous renal artery dissection and with aortic dissection.
TL;DR: Although a significant body of long-term data has yet to be accumulated, endovascular stent grafting has the added advantage over fenestration that it may affect aortic remodeling and prevent the very morbid complication of aneurysmal degeneration.
